Are you ready for a Bear and Whale Watching Tour in Alaska?

Welcome to Ketchikan's exceptional land and sea tour, a 4.5-hour adventure that is perfect for kids and families. Our intimate boat, the "Eagle One," will take you on an exciting wildlife viewing journey, where you can capture the beauty of Humpback Whales, Orcas (Killer Whales), Seals, Sea Lions, Eagles, and Salmon "Jumpers".

Our crew and drivers are experts in ensuring that you get the best opportunity to witness Ketchikan's wonders. We provide complimentary non-alcoholic beverages and pre-packaged snacks on board, and we have a bathroom available for your convenience.

Our tour starts from Front Street in Ketchikan with a ground portion in our spacious 13-passenger vans, where we will head to Herring Cove to view Black Bears foraging for Wild Alaskan Salmon. This area is also home to Bald Eagles that are hunting for salmon. After bear viewing, we will visit Saxman Totem Park, the world's largest collection of standing totems, showcasing the history and craftsmanship of these ancient artworks. You may have the opportunity to visit the large old Clan House, watch the Native Dancers, or take a guided tour around the park.

We will then stop at Creek Street for a short walk on the boardwalk that runs along the creek. Creek Street offers history, charm, and shops that you might get lost in. The creek has a large salmon return in the summer months, providing an excellent opportunity to watch the fish swim up the river to the fish ladder while you make your way along the boardwalk. After our walk, we will head north of town to the Totem State Park that showcases more authentic Alaskan carved totems. If requested by our passengers, we could also visit Refuge Cove and walk along the wooded trail that follows the beach.

We are happy to customize your tour to experience what you want, such as hiking along beaches, lake treks, and hitting the local trails. Although we cannot guarantee sightings, we do our best to get you to see Whales and Bears that visit our area in the summer months, and we hope to keep our whale sighting percentage rate at 90%. 

Our mission is to make this tour an unforgettable experience for you. We welcome you and your family to join us on this unique journey, where we promise to provide personalized attention to each of our guests. We are confident that our tour will spark enthusiasm in you and leave you feeling optimistic about the wonders of Ketchikan.
